Don’t let Aurora’s small stature fool you---- her spirit is strong. She is one of the 140 chickens _41_ from a farm. When we saved her, she was tiny and sick and it seemed _42_ that she would survive. Having never got the right _43_, many of the chickens were sick and some _44_ died.

At a young age, Aurora and her sisters and brothers were _45_ by their mom. Luckily, another mother _46_ their care. Aurora seemed the last to _47__ food and attention. She grew at a much slower _48_ than her brothers and sisters. Everything seemed _49_ her.

At the young age of 7 months, Aurora had lost two moms and was _50_ to find a place with the other chickens.

Aurora _51_ found comfort with an old chicken named Mary, staying under her wings during the cold nights, _52_ Mary was so old that a few months later she died. Aurora, in her own way, thinks of Mary. Every evening, you will find her in the _53_ spot where she kept Mary company. _54_ when the other chickens try to _55_ her away, Aurora comes back.

As Aurora grew, we became _56_ at her love to simply live. Nothing  _57_ her.

So remember, when life seems so _58_ that you can’t take it, thinks of Aurora. She has lost two moms, watched her sisters and brothers die, and _59__ from serious illnesses. Yet she enjoyed the small, sweet _60_life has offered ---- safety, food, warmth and good friendships.
